Chapter 11 - Wretched Life?

I have not seen Mike since that day we had a fight. Most of the times he behaved like an older brother rather a possessive one. At first I liked it because I never had a sibling but now it was detestable. He became controlling in the name of 'protecting' me.

Sometimes I think my life is wretched. I'm not destined to have happiness maybe. What did I do in my previous life to deserve all these.

"I'll change my fate if I have to. I'm not one of those who blame their fate, sit around, cry and do nothing." I thought to myself.

"Your birthday is nearing dear." Lydia said smile playing on her lips as usual.

"I know that aunt Lydia, but I don't want to celebrate it ever again." She said almost whispering.

"You should not say that dear."

I glanced at her and she seemed worried.

"You have friends, right? Mike and the others. Celebrate it with them, that'll will make you feel better."

"I don't have friends nor need them in my life, I need no one in my life." I said angrily fidgeting with the blanket. I sighed as I saw Lydia leave.

My life became routined for the past two weeks. From home to the university then back home. No friends no drama. Just spent time in my room. Lydia would come, check on me and then leave.

Its not like I had friends in my life before so I really don't need anyone.

///////////////////

"Dear this is DeLuca, she'll be replacing me from now onwards. I have read the papers she brought. I must say she seems efficient in her work from what I read." Aunt Lydia informed me.

I barely looked at her as I was busy looking for something. I just nodded and they left.

"Where is it? I never saw them before but I think they'll be here." I gave up after hours of looking for them.

"Aunt Lydia!! Can you please come for a sec" I called from my room. "Aunt Ly-"Β  I forgot she went away because of health reasons.

"Bella aunt Lydia is gone. Can I help you?"

"Its Miss Cowell or Madam Bella for you. Do not call me by my name, and yes I need assistance." I said almost ordering. She seemed almost my age but I didn't like her calling me by my name. πΆπ‘œπ‘›π‘“π‘–π‘‘π‘’π‘›π‘π‘’ β„Žπ‘’β„Ž?

"What's your name again?" I asked.

"DeLuca Co-"

"I'm in need of an album, if you could go and look for it in the store at the basement." I cut her off not wanting to hear anything. She just nodded and went away.

An hour later she came informing me that she could not find it. I just dismissed her and went on with my thoughts.

"Madam Bella is in her room" I heard DeLuca's voice. Who is she talking to though? As if on cue the door to my room opened revealing Michael.

"Bella-"

"Don't even Michael, I had the best time when you were away so don't-"

"BELLA," his voice boomed.

"Bella I'm your uncle do not forget that, besides I came to see you after so long. You're my responsibility now. I don't care if you hate me or whatever." He raised his hand to pat her head but she jerked it.

"Now is the time you realized that you're my uncle, huh?" She scoffed.

"I'm telling you I DO NOT WANT YOU OR ANYONE IN MY LIFE"

"Now If you could get out of my room." She said holding the door for Michael.

"Bella listen I can explain-"

"WILL YOU LEAVE."
